On the Boards is pleased to welcome Rowan Pantel and Kenn McLeod as its new leadership Team.
Artists, producers, administrators, and advocates for the arts in Saskatchewan for over 15+ years, Rowan and Kenn have spent their time creating opportunities for makers, producers, and audiences to connect. As an artist, Rowan has developed her practice from visual arts, to filmmaking, and puppetry. An independent theatre producer since 2005, Kenn is also a theatre artist, educator, and Clown. Together they have produced festivals, events, and arts workshops across the province.
"We are pleased to have found two people with the experience and passion to take On the Boards into its next incarnation," say Cynthia and Jim, the outgoing founders. "OTB is a pretty unique organization so finding a match was not something we took for granted. We are looking forward to seeing where Rowan and Kenn take the organization and how it will continue to serve the Community."
"We are thrilled to be chosen to lead On The Boards. This is an organization that we are both very fond of and look forward to continuing to support, mentor, and elevate artists here in Saskatoon. We are also committed to continuing the tremendous momentum created by Cynthia and Jim."
